[Display omitted] • A core-shell structured piperazine pyrophosphate microcapsules (MT@PAPP) is constructed. • The MT@PAPP enhances the compatibility and mechanical property of TPE/MT@PAPP composites. • Compared with pure TPE, the PHRR and PSPR of TPE/MT@PAPP were reduced by 78.5% and 60.0%, respectively. In this study, core-shell structured piperazine pyrophosphate (PAPP) is designed to enhance the fire safety and mechanical property of styrenic thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) composites. The PAPP is microencapsulated with carbon nanotube modified melamine-formaldehyde resin to prepare core-shell structured flame retardants (MT@PAPP). Due to the excellent compatibility between the MT@PAPP and TPE matrix, the mechanical property of TPE/MT@PAPP is improved. Compared with TPE, the peak heat release rate and peak smoke production rate of TPE/MT@PAPP are decreased by 78.5% and 60.0%, respectively. Thus, the core-shell structured piperazine pyrophosphate microcapsule strategy provides an excellent approach to obtain high-performance TPE composites. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
